I am using Prose theme, but know I Have an issue, i want to change date format to spanish, I already install genesis translate pluggin, but it doesn´t have the date update, I want to modify the locale.php inside the function.php file is that possible?

I don’t know of a way to change the locale.php file from within Genesis –> Custom Code –> Custom Functions, but someone more proficient in PHP may be able to do that.

There is a plugin called La Fecha which says it translates just the date.

Or, you can directly modify the locale.php file that’s inside wp-includes by changing the month names (and month abbreviations, day names, and day initials if necessary). Keep a backup copy of the original unedited file, and keep a copy of your modifications so you can easily update them when a new version of WordPress is released.

Whether you use the plugin or modify the php file, you’ll need to set a custom date format in Settings –> General –> Date Format, something like:

j \d\e F \d\e Y

which will output a date like this:

6 de mayo de 2013

or

l j \d\e F \d\e Y

which will output a date like this:

Lunes 6 de mayo de 2013

or

l \e\l j \d\e F \d\e Y

which will output a date like this:

Lunes el 6 de mayo de 2013

I hope this helps!

I love WordPress, Genesis, and the Prose child theme (my complete guide to using Prose is here: SiteSetupKit.com). Say hi on Twitter: @wendycholbi
